Growing up and moving on.....

It's very hard watching our kids make mistakes.  I'm tempted to jump in and fix it.  I've found that when I have done that I've robbed them of the experience of making their own choices and living their own lives.  I really have not helped at all.  It's painful to not be able to save them from being hurt or making choices that I feel will hurt them later on.  I guess my role is to love them and support them.  To let go enough for them to stand on their own two feet and walk towards their future.
